For the first few weeks after Brendan's surgery, I felt so overwhelmed, with caring for him full-time, and then having a houseful of sick people on top of that. But since everyone's well now, and Brendan's recovery is coming along beautifully, I feel like I can breathe a not-borrowed breath. And give you a quick update.

I've had a soft spot in my heart for red birds ever since my oldest daughters were babies. Every year, their Big Pawpaw would hide a tiny cardinal ornament in his Christmas tree for them to find. The girls thought this very serious business, as they crept silently around the tree, intent on finding that red bird. Sometimes they found it immediately, and sometimes it took a while, but I'll never forget the expressions on their precious faces. So sweet. . . .

I'm sorry I've been absent here lately. We've been in survival mode for the past few weeks. About a week after Brendan returned home from the hospital, every single kid, and that includes the husband, was sick. Bad Sick. Baby Henry had the Bad Sick plus ear infections, and is now on week 3 / round 2 of antibiotics to try to clear them up. I think (and hope and pray) that everyone is now on the mend. And for that, I'm so grateful.
